"None of the cast I came up with saw this future for me," reveals Morgan in 'I Am the New Black,' out next Tuesday. "All I have to say about that is, where's Chris Kattan now? Where's Cheri Oteri now? That b---- can't even get arrested."
But it wasn't just work at 'SNL.' Morgan goes into erotic detail describing an unofficial road trip to an illegal strip club called the Loft.
"I invited everyone to go down there one week," explains Morgan. "And Tina Fey, Rachel Dratch and a few others came along. I didn't tell any of them what they were in for, so it was all cool when we got there. ... Then these two girls came out onstage and started [engaging in sex acts], and that just shut it down. All the grips and crew guys from 'SNL' were standing around and loving it, but my castmates took one look at that, turned right around and rushed out of there."
Morgan felt misunderstood by the 'SNL' cast. "I had my finger on the pulse of urban comedy, but when I brought my act to 'SNL,' those mother--------- just felt bad for me," confides Morgan. But he does have praise for his '30 Rock' co-star, Tina Fey. "Tina wasn't scared to come into my world and find the funny up in there. She's that kind of cool," he writes.
Morgan also delves into the deeply personal. Coping with diabetes, being estranged from his mother and losing his father to AIDS.
Tracy Morgan, 40, was discovered performing stand-up comedy at Harlem's Apollo Theater and was a member of 'SNL' from 1996 to 2003. He was nominated for an Emmy Award for his work on '30 Rock' in 2009.

Can't stand the doofus...not funny, not "cutting edge", not memorable in any way - except maybe that pw vocalizing he calls a voice...go away - yesterday if not sooner...
Tracy Morgan is THE luckiest guy on earth. Very little talent, if any, and he's one of the stars on a very successful hit show, "30 Rock." And before that he was a regular on SNL for eight years! The guy is rich ... and has no talent. Lauren Michaels and Tina Fay love him. Go figure.
Tracy Morgan is a talentless, disgracious punk who were it not for SNL's desire to "round out" the usually white cast with a token black comic, would probably be in some back alley somewhere dead of an OD. He can't even write a coherent sentence in English. How can he call what he's put together (or just had put together) a "book"? It's really just taking some crazy guy's random, incoherent diatribes and patching them together to create a shock-value rant. He's truly a talentless fool.
You are SO RIGHT!!! MORGAN IS THE BIGGEST PILE OF NO TALENT HUMAN WASTE THAT WAS EVER SPAWNED!!! ONLY IDIOTS, MORONS, AND OTHER TWITS WOULD THINK THAT THIS GARBAGE MAN IS FUNNY. HE IS NOT!!!
Hunter! You and the others seem to bash Tracy Morgan on matters other than is comic talent or lack there of, why is that? It appears you use this forum to be ugly and racist, get a life. You must be a white american and I use the term "American" loosely.
OMG...he has no right to put anyone down...I can't even understand him. He is the biggest no talent has been that somehow miraculously got on a hit tv show....wonder who he slept with for that? He is foul mouthed and disgusting and I love that show but I cringe when he comes on the screen. I personally cannot think of anyone I know that like him or his character. The experience of taking his castmates somewhere and exposing them to live porn is so vile and disgusting but right up his skanky alley.
He was FAR from the least funny person on SNL. It's based on opinion. I thought Norm McDonald and Colin Quinn were awful, but others found them hysterical.
I can tell you that I think Tracy Morgan is hysterical. I also think that Dane Cook is an overrated moron. It's just what your taste is...
SNL hasn't been funny in 30 years. He's the type of "talent" they push up on the stage and try to act funny. Funny is a "God given" talent. God never visited this guy in his ghetto neighborhood.
Typical Hollywierd ungrateful trash with a chip on his shoulder and the morals of a true pathetic piece of human debris. This moron has as much talent as my dog and about the same brain power. OK, sorry for the insult Fido. He will go the way of all overrated imbeciles...bankrupt and destitute if not dead. Good ridance and take out the trash please AOL
MORGAN HAS NEVER SAID ANYTHING FUNNY IN HIS LIFE. NEITHER HAS ANYONE IN OR ON SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE SINCE THE DAYS OF ACKROYD, MURRY,RADNER AND BELUSHI. THIS GUY RELYS ON PURE PROFANITY,SEX AND THE "BLACK" EXPERIENCE FOR HIS ACT. HEY TRACY, NONE OF THAT IS FUNNY! QUIT THROWING STONES AT OTHER PEOPLE.

If he completes a coherent sentence on his own, it is a minor miracle.

Not in the least bit funny. Of course he won't knock Tina, he never had it so good. Urban comedy? I don't think so, least funny person ever on SNL.

Never thought he was funny at all - I always thought of him as some kind of "Quick Replacement of somekind".

He was the least funny cast member of SNL EVER. I never understood how he lasted so long, except maybe he was a good "token".
Typical Hollywood? Who are you? Nobody. Case closed.
